Typing Of The Dead

Typing Of the Dead Full Typing Game.

The Typing of the Dead has been described variously as a remake or as a mod of the original House of the Dead 2. It retains the original's first-person rail shooter style, but instead of shooting zombies and other enemies the player must type out words or phrases to kill them. The required word, sentence or phrase is displayed in a box that appears with the enemy. The phrases' length and complexity increase as the game progresses. Other features retained include the rescue challenges that alter the path the game takes to its final destination and the secrets and bonus items hidden throughout the game.
All levels contain specific challenge areas in which the player is required to kill a certain number of zombies in a limited time. These end with a boss battle that uses some altered form of usual gameplay, such as a long phrase or a question whose answer must be correctly typed. The console ports have "Original" and "Arcade" modes for the main storyline and "Tutorial," "Drill," and "Boss" modes for additional typing training.Most other changes are superficial, such as replacement of the weapons wielded by zombies with harmless items and equipping the AMS agents with keyboards attached to backpack Dreamcasts with oversized batteries.
Typing of the dead: Overkill fuses the horror and comedy of the legendary House of the Dead series with unique typing mechanics in order to deliver a truly original gaming experience! This gruesome shooter puts you in the middle of a mutant outbreak in Bayou county.
In The Typing of the Dead: Overkill you play as a special agent who partners up with a potty-mouthed detective to track down the villain Papa Ceasar and save the county from a mutant outbreak. The story unfolds over nine episodes and combines horror with potentially disturbing, over-the-top comedy.

The game is a reworked version of the first-person rail shooter The House of the Dead: Overkill - Extended Cut, in which the shooting mechanics of combat have been replaced by quickly and accurately typing words and phrases that appear on screen. Words are randomly chosen so they are different every time you play, and multiple difficulty levels are available to provide a challenge for typists of varying skill levels.

A port of the Playstation 3 version of House of the Dead: Overkill - Extended Cut is also included, so if you type exclusively with your index fingers or simply don’t enjoy the activity you can always take out zombies the old fashioned way. In this mode you must aim and shoot traditionally, and will be allowed to buy and upgrade guns after each episode with the cash you were quick enough to grab.

Movement and camera are on pre-determined paths so the experience feels like taking a ride through a haunted house at the fair, allowing you to focus on destroying zombies, picking up collectibles, rescuing civilians and racking up your high score. Boss fights at the end of each episode are well designed and two player co-op is a lot of fun, but it is possible to frequently encounter bugs in multiplayer which require you to restart the episode, such as words not appearing properly or the game desyncing and freezing.
